How much longer will the chapel look like this?, well soon we hope it will look much better.  If  we reach agreement  on terms with Bourne Town Council, we hope start restoration work in 2009, following a process of preparing the chapel for it’s final winter before restoration work should begin.
What a wonderful sight it will be to see the cemetery chapel functioning again as a building within the cemetery, performing the function that it was designed to do, providing comfort to those who go through it’s doors, whether for funeral services, or the paying of respect to those interred in it’s grounds.
Bourne Town Council

We have received written confirmation of the decision taken by the full Council at their meeting on Tuesday  3rd August, to provide startup funding of £5000, after we have provided a business plan, which we will do.
This means that two of the three stages in getting control of the chapel are now complete, the only  point to be agreed now is the lease agreement. This decision, is, of course, a major one, and will be taken following legal advice, however early indications are that there will be no major issues for us in the lease detail, however caution is still prudent.
Assuming that the lease is accepted by us, and once it is signed, our project begins in earnest, and project planning, and the raising of grant funding, will become our number one priority.

Extraordinary General Meeting for all members, on Friday 12th September, at 8.30pm, at Baldocks Mill, Bourne. Please attend this short meeting to amend our Constitution prior to our application to become a Registered Charity
